Washing of the Spears : Owen Grainger
It is 1879 and Lieutenant Robert Connor, a newly commissioned officer in the British Army, has been sent to a war in Africa on special posting. This war, soon to become known as the Zulu War, will be his first.
Attached to the Central Column, under the command of Lieutenant-General Frederic Augustus Thesiger, Lord Chelmsford, an old friend of his father’s, Connor is thrown into the fight: attacking an enemy kraal, scouting ahead of the invading column and riding deep into enemy territory to meet a Boer gunrunner, Bash Van der Byl, who also spies against the Zulus.
Things do not go well with Van der Byl, whose actions could endanger British soldiers, and Connor and the Boer part as enemies.
When 20,000 Zulus attack the Central Column’s camp, Connor is in the thick of the fighting and, surviving the battle, later finds himself at Rorke’s Drift, where a small British force has to hold off a 4,000 strong Zulu impi.
But the Zulus are not Connor’s only enemy. Bash Van der Byl has also found his way to Rorke’s Drift and as Connor fights for his life on the frontline, behind him Van der Byl plots his demise.
Can Connor, surrounded by enemies on all sides, survive his first war?

Breaking Free to Be Me: Inspiring Reflections along the Highway From Breakdown to Recovery : Katrina Evans
I was just starting to come back to life after a major breakdown, when it all began to come together…
We were given the task of writing an intimate letter to ourselves during a recovery group session. As my hand flowed across the page and the words appeared in front of me, it soon became clear that to release myself from the anxiety and depression that controlled and overwhelmed me, I just needed to be Me.
Although it isn’t quite that simple, I do believe that the most crucial part of any journey from breakdown to recovery, is to explore and re-discover yourself and not be afraid to become the real You—the person you were created to be.
Breaking Free To Be Me has evolved from my own recovery process and a drawing together of the many years I spent studying and trying to understand human thinking and behaviour. It is a collection of short pieces that have been designed to be easy for the reader to ponder and will equip them with some powerful tools as they travel along life’s highway.

The Calling of the Protectors, The Legend of Chief : Louis Paul DeGrado
When a small fluffy cat teams up with a canary, a cockatoo, and a fancy mouse to stand up to a villainous, hoodlum rat, a hero is born!
Chief is a Protector, a cat that has the calling to protect humans against vermin and evil. Nicknamed, The Bronx Bruiser, he and his owner, Sam, are called upon to move to a high-rise complex that has gone green and uses cats, not poisons, to drive out the rodents.
Unlike Chief, his daughter is born a runt and is given the name “Mouse” because of her size. She struggles in her father’s large world to live up to his reputation. She adapts well by realizing she cannot approach her problems with brute strength but through alliances. Her allies include Ladie, an advice-giving canary, Carl, an escaped Cockatoo who hangs out with pigeons, and Little Foot, a small fancy mouse.
When a group of hoodlum rats led by a deviant lab rat named Bragar break the truce between the cats and the rats, a battle for the apartment complex ensues. Faced with losing her home and all her father has fought for, Mouse summons her courage and rises to the occasion to stand up to Bragar.
Will Mouse succeed? Can she convince Wilber to help her? Will the lazy rats Slim and Slouch accomplish anything?
Join in the mighty adventure and find out what happens when a small amount of courage has a giant impact!
“DeGrado hits a home-run with this empowering read. Recommended for home and school libraries, The Calling of the Protectors, the Legend of Chief earns the Literary Classics Seal of Approval.”
“With its sweet kitten heroine and environmental themes, this novel will resonate with readers of all ages.” -Foreword Reviews.
“But despite its seriousness, the novel is also charming, fun, and entertaining. Its many wonderful songs (alley cats sing the blues, for example) absolutely beg for transformation into an animated movie. The satisfying ending will have readers cheering out loud—and waiting hopefully for the next book in this series. An exciting story for animal lovers about courage, resilience, and working together. –Kirkus Reviews

Samar Hamish is an archeologist obsessed with confirming his faith by digging up proof of historical events.

With its unusual theme, colorful characters and nail-biting plot, this book is sure to please anyone who appreciates a different take on evil or who loves Christian science fiction.” -Blue Ink Press
